Would be appreciative if someone could list all the Titan class figures that have come out since Metroplex in 2013.

Thanks.

Later releases of Hasbro Trypticon have the corrected hip springs and the asymmetrical towers too.

I think there was a Takara Legends Metroplex reissue some time after Predaking too. Was that the LG-EX?

No, not variants, just the characters.

Not including combiners.

Omega was 2019 as Predaking took the 2018 slot.

I thought Predaking was 2017.

Not as such.. Fort Max was revealed in 2015 but properly released in 2016. Trypticon was properly released in 2017.

Nah that was Trypticon. We've had a titan class every year since Combiner Wars started with a year missing in between then and Metroplex in 2013

Okay, so it's

2013: Metroplex
2015: Devastator
2016: Fort Max
2017: Trypticon
2018: Predaking
2019: Omega
2020: Scorponok

I remember seeing Max in TRU in early January 2016, so I thought he was released in time for Christmas 2015.

Trust me when I say I know how fuzzy memory can be. But I know for sure Fort Max didn't come out until either very late spring or early Summer of 2016, right around the same time as SDCC and the convention variant. He was definitely still on TRU shelves come December 2016, that may be what you were remembering. Also established the tradition of Titans coming out in the summer (in North America at least), until Omega Supreme was delayed until fall to improve QC, which was definitely worth the wait.

I am 100% certain I saw him at TRU in January of 2016 because it was the same day I saw my last ex-girlfriend for the last time, and it's something that stayed with me. I wanted to buy Max but I couldn't because I was saving my money for a trip with her that ended up not happening. So after we broke up a week later, I went back to TRU to get Max but of course he was gone. It was the only time I ever saw him in B&M stores. So I remember clearly when I saw him because his sighting was attached to another memorable yet disappointing event. :-(

The silver lining is that his price ended up being a part of the down payment for my new car at the time. :-D

Sorry to dredge up bad memories. But you should have brought that, since you would have been the first in the world to have one, even before his official reveal at ToyFair a month later.

No problem you couldn't have known. But it was something not easily forgotten, that's how I remember seeing the Titan figure. I was in the store looking for new TR deluxes and any CW stragglers and boom, there he was on the bottom shelf.

whaaaaaat? So the TRU made a mistake in putting it out too early? I was only loosely following new releases, so I had no idea what was coming out when.

You missed your chance in history, Rodimus!

Man. I own all the molds of the Titan-class bruisers so far. I cannot wait for Scorponok to come out.
